Tang San and the others were all extremely tense, staring fixedly at Shui Bing'er on the field.

In less than a minute, after just two exchanges, Dai Mubai had been completely suppressed, forced to his knees and unable to move!

One had to know that Dai Mubai possessed the highest Soul Power Level among the Shrek Seven Devils—a level thirty-seven assault-type Soul Elder.

Yet, with his attributes doubled under the White Tiger Vajra Transformation, he had been so easily suppressed by a seemingly delicate girl.

It was not only the Shrek group. The three education committee members on the platform were also dumbstruck.

A sharp light flickered in Meng Shenji's eyes.

"To so effortlessly suppress the Evil Eye White Tiger at the same level... that child truly is a genius!"

Zhi Lin's face turned livid. He had just called Shui Bing'er nothing but a pretty face, and now he had been slapped in the face.

Still, he stubbornly said, "So what if her control is strong? Dai Mubai hasn't lost yet. He'll definitely break free of those restraints!"

Bai Baoshan shook his head.

"It won't be that simple. Look at the thickness and density of that ice. This isn't ordinary Ice Seal. That child's soul power quality likely far surpasses that of Soul Masters at the same level."

The teachers and students in the audience had erupted into an uproar.

"Shui Bing'er is way too strong, isn't she?! She's beautiful, and her strength is this terrifying too!"

"Is this the power of a top-tier ice-element martial soul? It's too frightening!"

Beside the training ground, Dugu Yan proudly lifted her chin and said to Ye Lingling beside her, "See? I told you Bing'er was amazing!"

Ye Lingling nodded gently, a strange light flickering in her cool eyes.

She knew Shui Bing'er was strong, but she had never expected her to be this strong.

Yu Tianheng said, "This Shui Bing'er... I wonder where she came from. Judging by her age, she should belong to some academy. We might run into her at the Soul Master Tournament in the future."

"Boss, it would definitely be an amazing match if your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon faced her Ice Phoenix."

Yu Tianheng did not answer. His gaze grew deeper as he thought to himself, If we really met, could I beat her...?

At the edge of the field, the Shrek group was frantic with worry.

"Come on, Boss Dai!"

Ma Hongjun shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Break the ice already!"

Oscar also shouted, "Go, Boss! We Shrek Seven Devils won't lose!"

Behind his glasses, Flender's eyes narrowed into slits.

Yu Xiaogang clenched his fists tightly.

Tang San stared intently at the field.

They could all see Dai Mubai, trapped in the ice, struggling desperately.

His muscles bulged under the White Tiger Vajra Transformation as his soul power continuously battered the ice.

Yet the blue ice did not budge in the slightest. Instead, it faintly glimmered with an even colder radiance.

Yu Xiaogang suddenly said, "Mubai's soul power is being rapidly depleted. He probably won't be able to hold on for much longer..."

The hearts of the Shrek group rose to their throats.

Just then, Xu Feng's voice rang out in Shui Bing'er's mind.

"Bing'er, use Ice Burst. Teach him a lesson."

"Phoenix Brother, this is only an ordinary friendly match. Besides, we've only just met him and have no grudge against him. Do we really have to do this?"

Xu Feng gave a soft laugh.

"You're still too kind. This Dai Mubai is no good person. If you can't bring yourself to do it, let me handle it. Besides, I still need to deal with that lecher who calls himself the Evil Fire Phoenix."

"All right, then."

Shui Bing'er relaxed her mind and handed control of her body over to Xu Feng.

Her body trembled slightly.

She closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her gaze was completely different.

Her eyes had previously been cold as ice, but now they carried an arrogance that looked down upon the world.

The instant he took control of her body, Xu Feng flexed his fingers and curled his lips into a cold smile.

"Evil Eye White Tiger—nothing special."

As soon as he finished speaking, he lightly clenched his right hand.

Bang—!

The blue ice encasing Dai Mubai exploded with a thunderous crash, turning into countless sharp ice spikes that scattered in every direction!

"Ah—!"

Dai Mubai let out a miserable scream as he was blasted away, tracing an arc through the air before crashing heavily onto the ground more than ten meters away!

His clothes had been shredded to tatters by the ice spikes, and the exposed skin was covered in tiny wounds.

Most conspicuous were the three deep bloody gashes across his face, with blood streaming down his cheeks.

Dai Mubai struggled to get up, but then spat out a mouthful of blood with a "Pwah!" and collapsed again.

The entire venue fell silent.

Everyone had been stunned by this sudden turn of events.

Dai Mubai, the Evil Eye White Tiger, had actually been defeated so effortlessly!

After a brief silence, a tremendous uproar erupted from the stands.

"Dai Mubai lost!"

"And he lost so badly! He was completely crushed!"

"They're both three-ring Soul Elders—how could the gap be this huge?"

"Shui Bing'er's strength... is terrifying!"

On the elevated platform, the three Education Committee members looked at one another, their eyes filled with shock.

Meng Shenji muttered, "That child's strength... far exceeds our estimates."

Zhi Lin opened his mouth, wanting to say something, only to realize he had nothing to say.

The facts were right before them. Shui Bing'er's strength was beyond question.

At the edge of the arena, the Shrek group finally came to their senses.

"Boss Dai!"

"Mubai!"

The group rushed into the arena and gathered around Dai Mubai.

Oscar hurriedly made a Big Recovery Sausage and stuffed it into Dai Mubai's mouth.

Tang San swiftly examined Dai Mubai's injuries, his expression growing uglier by the second.

"Three broken ribs, internal organs shaken by the impact, and these wounds on his face... they may leave scars."

Tang San turned toward Shui Bing'er, his eyes blazing with fury.

He rose to his feet and shouted sharply, "This is only a friendly match! Why did you have to be so vicious?! You may have a beautiful face, but your heart is more venomous than snakes and scorpions!"

Xu Feng snorted coldly.

"Haven't your people severely injured enough others already? I already showed mercy. This was merely a slight punishment. If you want someone to blame, blame him for being inferior."

"You—"

Tang San was left speechless by the retort.

The Shrek students all glared viciously at Shui Bing'er, wanting to seek justice for Dai Mubai.

"Looks like you're not convinced?"

"Of course we're not!"

Ma Hongjun stepped forward, his eyes burning with rage.

"We didn't know your martial soul was an Ice Phoenix, so we miscalculated! If you faced my Evil Fire Phoenix, you might not necessarily win!"

The moment those words were spoken, the entire venue erupted again.

"That fat guy's martial soul is a phoenix too?! And a fire phoenix at that?"

"Ice Phoenix against Fire Phoenix... who knows what'll happen."

"One is ice and the other fire. Their attributes counter each other—who wins and who loses really isn't certain!"

The crowd's excitement was stirred, and everyone eagerly anticipated a clash between the Ice-Fire Phoenixes.

Dugu Bo's eyes flashed with a glint of light at the sight.

He looked toward the three Education Committee members on the elevated platform and said loudly, "Committee Member Meng, since everyone is so eager to see it, why not add another match and let them lose so thoroughly that they'll be completely convinced?"

Meng Shenji looked at Dai Mubai, who was being helped up by the others, then at the indignant Shrek group. Finally, his gaze fell on the calm and composed Shui Bing'er.

He also wanted to see a showdown between the Ice Phoenix and the Evil Fire Phoenix.

Ma Hongjun grew even more fired up:

"If we fight again, we definitely won't lose to you!"

Xu Feng gave a disdainful smile:

"You're only a two-ring Soul Grandmaster. You're not even qualified to compete on the same stage as me. But I don't want to take advantage of you, either. Isn't there a support master on your team who can provide buffs? Have her join you. Also, I won't use any thousand-year soul skills—only hundred-year soul skills."
